[CW] Announcement WNE and on air - W1WNE (and others) on air for Night of Nights

[John Barnwell]

DR,

Yep NMW had a presence on 500. Sent a DDD SOS one night. Not the same as being on the stricken vessel as you were, but what happens on 500 after you send it was incredible. Deathly silence for a moment, and then everybody calling to QSL with QTH.  Not to mention the shear enormity of the incident. I’ll reflect on this for a bit, and post something interesting for the forum.

John
